0:22:37 > 0:22:42- These days, people choose names - that derive from Love Island...

0:24:20 > 0:24:24- You can't shorten the name, Cadi.

0:24:31 > 0:24:37- My brother was called Bob at school - in Swansea and the name has stuck.
0:24:37 > 0:24:43- Maybe parents want their children - to be called by these pet names.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48- Many of the names - are short and catchy.
0:24:48 > 0:24:53- Are you disappointed that the names - aren't more colloquial...
0:24:53 > 0:24:58- ..and have lost the local aspect?
0:24:58 > 0:25:03- The top ten in the list - of English names...
0:25:03 > 0:25:09- ..tend to end with the letter 'a' - and Ava is now spelt in this way.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59- It means island.

0:26:19 > 0:26:25- Many Welsh names can be difficult - to pronounce by the English.
0:26:26 > 0:26:31- Maybe this is why they choose - more Anglicized names.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17- I'm sure the name Mali - will reach the 2017 list.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23- The name, Alun wasn't even - near to the top of the list...
0:27:23 > 0:27:27- ..but I certainly agree - that they're all great names.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- It's time for a break, - but still to come today...
0:27:31 > 0:27:34- ..Owain visits a farm - in Carmarthenshire...
0:27:34 > 0:27:37- ..that recently diversified.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41- Catrin's also in the kitchen - preparing a vegetable lasagne.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44- Join us in a few minutes.
0:27:46 > 0:27:46- .
0:27:56 > 0:27:57- Welcome back.
0:27:57 > 0:28:02- In Carmarthenshire, - there's a farm that's diversified.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05- Owain went to hear more.
0:28:13 > 0:28:19- The glorious location of Fron Farm - offers a very unusual service...
0:28:19 > 0:28:23- ..where you can stay in a roundhouse - or a yurt.
0:28:24 > 0:28:29- I considered doing this but knew - nothing about roundhouses and yurts!
0:28:29 > 0:28:34- Guy and Natasha own this site...
0:28:34 > 0:28:38- ..and build the houses here too.
0:28:41 > 0:28:45- Hello, Natasha - and thanks for the warm welcome.
0:28:45 > 0:28:50- What is a yurt and roundhouse - and why did you build them here?
0:28:51 > 0:28:55- Yurts are originally - from Mongolia and Kazakhstan...
0:28:55 > 0:29:00- ..but people stay in yurts - in Britain when they are glamping.
0:29:00 > 0:29:05- Many are bored of tents - and a yurt is an unusual option.
0:29:05 > 0:29:10- The yurt has a bed, - a little kitchen and wood fire.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14- There isn't Wi-Fi - or mobile phones...
0:29:14 > 0:29:17- ..but it's better than a damp tent!
0:29:18 > 0:29:23- Five years ago, we decided to - diversify into a glamping site...
0:29:23 > 0:29:30- ..because glamping - is very popular at the moment.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34- My partner, Guy - designed this yurt roundhouse...
0:29:34 > 0:29:37- ..so that people - can get married on the farm.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42- It's lucky that - there's a historic church...
0:29:42 > 0:29:45- ..near the glamping site.
0:29:45 > 0:29:50- The Church of St Mary and St Curig - dates from the Middle Ages...
0:29:50 > 0:29:56- ..and sits 400 yards away from - a Medieval motte-and-bailey castle.
0:29:56 > 0:30:01- It's on the land of a farm - linked with the abbey in Whitland.
0:30:01 > 0:30:07- We don't have any written documents - about the source of the church...
0:30:07 > 0:30:13- ..but the body of the church - dates from the late 15th century.
0:30:14 > 0:30:19- The church came with the farm when - my parents bought it 20 years ago...
0:30:19 > 0:30:24- ..but the church fell into disrepair - in the 1950s.
0:30:24 > 0:30:30- Two years ago, my parents - chose to restore the building.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34- Local builders - have spent two years...
0:30:35 > 0:30:38- ..returning it to its former glory.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42- Natasha's partner plays - a prominent role in the business...
0:30:43 > 0:30:48- ..building the glamping pods and - selling them across the country...
0:30:48 > 0:30:53- ..after learning to build them - himself with a useful handbook!
0:30:53 > 0:30:59- The first yurt I made probably - took me about six to eight weeks...
0:30:59 > 0:31:02- ..and the handbook - came in very helpful.
0:31:03 > 0:31:08- From making yurts, we got enquiries - for all-year-round structures.
0:31:08 > 0:31:13- A yurt is more - of a seasonal structure...
0:31:14 > 0:31:19- ..so we have built a roundhouse-type - yurt which is wooden clad structure.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23- It is more of - a four season structure.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27- We welcome families - during school holidays.
0:31:27 > 0:31:31- Couples also come here - for a romantic getaway.
0:31:31 > 0:31:36- There's also room to socialize, - the children can play outdoors...
0:31:36 > 0:31:40- ..and parents can forget - about their stressful lives.
0:31:42 > 0:31:47- I've walked around the houses and - church and it's definitely magical.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50- The hillside views are glorious.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55- I won't be going back - to the studio in a hurry!
0:32:03 > 0:32:07- Owain was in his element there.
0:32:07 > 0:32:12- Italian cuisine was on the menu - in Monday's Prynhawn Da kitchen.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15- The lasagne looked delicious!
0:32:15 > 0:32:17- This dish is for vegetarians.
0:32:17 > 0:32:21- I'm using butternut squash - which is in season at the moment.
0:32:21 > 0:32:26- It's got a sweet taste but mixes - well with tomatoes and olives...
0:32:26 > 0:32:29- ..and the cheese, - so it's a delicious blend.
0:32:29 > 0:32:33- It's a comforting meal - and can be prepare beforehand.
0:32:33 > 0:32:37- First, I'll show you - how to prepare the butternut squash.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40- There are larger sizes available.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44- I've placed a damp cloth - under the chopping board...
0:32:44 > 0:32:47- ..to make sure that it doesn't slip.
0:32:47 > 0:32:51- Slice the butternut squash in half - with a sharp knife.
0:32:51 > 0:32:56- It's easier to slice - with a sharp knife...
0:32:56 > 0:32:59- ..than a sharp knife - that's slightly blunt...
0:33:00 > 0:33:02- ..as there's a chance of slippage.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06- Remove the bottom of - the butternut squash.
0:33:06 > 0:33:12- Peel the skin with a peeler...
0:33:12 > 0:33:16- ..and remove the seeds - in the middle.
0:33:16 > 0:33:20- The skin is very thick - so you need to be careful.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23- Spoon out the seeds.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26- It's as easy as that but be careful.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29- The centre resembles a pumpkin.
0:33:29 > 0:33:33- You can also use - a pumpkin for this recipe.
0:33:33 > 0:33:39- I prepared the butternut squash - and roasted it with red peppers.
0:33:39 > 0:33:45- Roast for 20 minutes - at 180C or gas mark 6.
0:33:45 > 0:33:50- It releases the natural sugars - and intensifies the flavour.
0:33:50 > 0:33:55- Once the vegetables are roasted, - we can move on to the sauce.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59- I've fried some red onions here.
0:33:59 > 0:34:05- The onions have softened - in half a tablespoon of olive oil.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08- Add some tinned tomatoes.
0:34:08 > 0:34:13- Tomatoes are the basis of a lasagne.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17- It's time to add some olives - but does everyone like them?
0:34:17 > 0:34:18- No, I don't.
0:34:18 > 0:34:19- No, I don't.- - I love olives.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Can you make a version - for me without olives?
0:34:23 > 0:34:26- You'll have to pull them out, Owain.
0:34:27 > 0:34:31- But they do compliment - the butternut squash.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34- Add 100g of olives.
0:34:34 > 0:34:40- Lasagne comes from Italy - and they also grow olives there.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- Throw in some fresh basil.
0:34:43 > 0:34:48- I'll also add some dried chilli.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51- I think dried chilli - is better than fresh chilli.
0:34:51 > 0:34:56- It's slightly hotter, but you can - control how hot you want the dish.
0:34:57 > 0:35:01- Allow this to simmer for 20 minutes.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04- We'll imagine that - 20 minutes has gone...
0:35:05 > 0:35:10- ..and once it's simmered, - we add the roasted vegetables.
0:35:10 > 0:35:15- We want to make it more - nutritional and colourful...
0:35:15 > 0:35:17- ..add some spinach to the pan.
0:35:17 > 0:35:22- This will then only take - a few minutes cook.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26- It gives the spinach - a chance to wither.
0:35:26 > 0:35:31- Add it at the final stage - of the cooking process.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34- It only takes minutes to cook.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37- And the tomatoes - have already been roasted.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40- I'll leave this on a low heat - for a minute...
0:35:40 > 0:35:43- ..and move on to the cheese sauce.
0:35:43 > 0:35:49- I'm going to make roux - with 50g of melted butter.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51- It smells delicious.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54- We've got some lovely flavours.
0:35:54 > 0:35:58- Add 50g of flour - to help thicken the sauce.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02- Cook this for a couple of minutes.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05- What flour did you use?
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- What flour did you use?- - I used plain flour.
0:36:08 > 0:36:12- Cook the sauce for - another couple of minutes.
0:36:13 > 0:36:19- Add 500ml of milk to the mixture.
0:36:19 > 0:36:25- Continue to stir whilst pouring - to stop any lumps from forming.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28- Allow this to cook.
0:36:29 > 0:36:33- Unfortunately, time is against us.
0:36:33 > 0:36:35- So, by the magic of television!
0:36:36 > 0:36:39- The sauce has thickened.
0:36:39 > 0:36:45- Add 100g of cheddar cheese - to the sauce.
0:36:45 > 0:36:52- Once the sauce is cooked, - we need to build our lasagne.
0:36:52 > 0:36:56- I'll leave this sauce for a minute.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00- I've got a lasagne in the oven - that I made earlier.
0:37:00 > 0:37:04- All I did was build the lasagne...
0:37:04 > 0:37:08- ..using layers of fresh pasta.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13- Create the lasagne with layers.
0:37:13 > 0:37:19- Place layer-upon-layer, - finish with some mozzarella...
0:37:20 > 0:37:26- ..and top with a sprinkle of cheese, - pine nuts and basil.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- It's a simple dish to make.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31- I've never made my own lasagne.
0:37:31 > 0:37:34- It's shameful.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38- Yes, and it's also easy - to make with some beef.
0:37:38 > 0:37:42- Thank you, Catrin. - I'll make a note of that recipe.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46- It's time for a break - but we return for the final time...
0:37:46 > 0:37:51- ..with rugby star, Shane Williams - performing on stage in a pantomime.
0:37:52 > 0:37:53- Oh, yes he will!
0:37:54 > 0:37:57- Hana Medi visits Folly Farm.
0:37:58 > 0:38:04- The West End star, John Owen-Jones - also performs the song, Adre'n Ol.
0:38:04 > 0:38:10- You've got a couple of minutes to - make a quick cuppa and return to us.
0:38:16 > 0:38:16- .
0:38:22 > 0:38:24- Welcome back.
0:38:24 > 0:38:29- Despite being told he was - too small to play rugby...
0:38:29 > 0:38:35- ..he went on to win 87 Welsh caps - and score 58 tries.
0:38:35 > 0:38:41- Shane Williams' story - is amazing and inspirational.
0:38:41 > 0:38:47- But he's changed direction - and is performing in a panto.
0:38:58 > 0:39:02- Shane, I've heard you're swapping - the rugby boots for tights?
0:39:02 > 0:39:07- I haven't seen the costume yet, but - tights will probably be involved.
0:39:07 > 0:39:12- Why did you decide to do a panto?
0:39:13 > 0:39:18- S4C and Geraint approached me - to do something different.
0:39:18 > 0:39:22- It will be a nice thing to do - around Christmas.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26- Gareth Thomas and Mike Phillips - have appeared in panto, so why not?
0:39:27 > 0:39:29- The panto is about your career.
0:39:30 > 0:39:34- It must be an honour to have - Tudur Owen write a script about you.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37- It's quite strange...
0:39:37 > 0:39:42- ..as my rugby story - differs from others.
